BUILDING TRANSATLANTIC NETWORKS IN EASTERN GERMANY

Markt 9, 04109 Leipzig
Please sign up for the get-together below.
Saxony, Saxony-Anhalt, and Thuringia are among the most transformative areas in Europe. They have undergone rapid transformation during the last three decades. Many challenges have been shouldered by the region and its people. At the same time, the pains of transformation have resulted in wide-spread constituencies prone to illiberal messaging, disinformation campaigns, and anti-democratic tendencies. Yet the region can only benefit from increased exposure to global and transatlantic perspectives.
Through networking events like these, we seek to promote transatlantic values, and the open exchange of ideas, perspectives, and innovation in Eastern Germany.
